Secondé par Quincy Jones et Rod Temperton, magistralement soutenu, selon les plages, par la guitare de Dean Parks et d'Eddie Van Halen, Michael se hisse au niveau des grandes voix de la soul. Mais en même temps, il innove, allant bien au-delà des frontières du rhythm'n'blues et du funk pour créer une musique d'une éblouissante modernité. Du funk terrifiant de "Billie Jean" au très hard "Beat It", du mélodique "This Girl Is Mine" (un duo avec Paul McCartney) à la chanson-titre, c'est bien d'un stupéfiant brassage des genres qu'il s'agit, brassage qui permettait au petit génie de Gary de fixer les règles musicales de la musique noire au tournant du XXe siècle.
Amazon.com essential recordingMichael Jackson's Thriller is the bestselling album of all time, with 45 million worldwide sales powered by seven Top 10 U.S. singles and eight Grammy Awards. The 1982 album was also a success from which the pop superstar never really recovered--subsequent albums seemed to have no other goal than to beat the records set by Thriller. The highly-polished sound of Quincy Jones's production sounds almost organic compared to Jackson's more recent work, and in the same regard, Thriller was significantly slicker than its predecessor, Off the Wall. Both albums established a Jackson style that aimed for the dance floor with songs built on a state-of-the-art bed of percussion and keyboards. Elements of milestone Thriller tracks like "Billie Jean" (arguably Jackson's best-ever performance) and "Beat It" (with its hard-rock solo by guitarist Eddie Van Halen) influenced not just Jackson's records, but those of the entire dance-pop world. On the song "Thriller," Jackson indulged his taste for the juvenile and invited Vincent Price to rap in a really scary voice. With Thriller the album, Jackson created a different kind of monster.A hit album
